Grip Features:

Intense Action

Hit speeds of up to 700 km/h while driving on floors, walls and ceilings – anything you can get your tyres on to keep the hammer down. And these brutes just want to keep on going, with GRIP’s specialised vehicle design and physics, flipping the car over no longer means game over.

Exotic Planets

Race on a variety of planets. From hostile, icy worlds to foreign, non-terrestrial cities, GRIP’s locations will be different to anything you’ve raced through before. With destructible structures around each track to use against your opponents, along with a variety of possible routes, you have to use your wits as well as your skill to win.

Badass Rides

Choose from a roster of armoured cars, manufactured by different companies from around the galaxy. Each car has different specs – some swift and agile, others brutish and heavily armed. Then go on to customize your ride’s appearance and performance with well-earned upgrades.

Beefy Weapons

Use an array of power-ups and weapons, ranging from missiles and guns, to laid traps and plasma cannons. We want to create the most bombastic weapons ever seen in a game like this, and with this we welcome input from the community. You help us design them, and we’ll bring them to life.

Killer Tunes

Race to a thumping soundtrack including Drum ‘n, Trance, Breaks and Techno. And if somehow you don’t like any of those genres, the game can be customised to play any music you like from your own personal library. Your game, experienced your way.

Multiplayer Mayem

Oh yes. The feature that you, us, and everyone else around here has been waiting for – local and online multiplayer. Share the experience of that crazed, heat of battle there in the room with your friends with split-screen, or launch an all-out assault for supremacy online on the global leaderboards with the wider Grip community.
